The 261st issue of Doctor Who Magazine was released on 15 January 1998 and removed from British newsstands on 11 February 1998. It is perhaps best remembered for being one of only two issues of the magazine as of May 2012[update] not to have a comic strip. Unlike its 2005 successor, however, this break in the comic strip was unplanned. Indeed, this is the only issue of the magazine in which the comic creators simply missed their deadline.
